A colossus of the rock world gone. One of the Giants of my time and earliest music influences.

To Bowie fans, if you haven't seen the movie Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence, then have a watch, some fine acting by a great legend.

Rip David Bowie, one of the best entertainers of our generation. Shocked & saddened by this news, didn't know he was sick. A true legend lost, his legacy immense & timeless. Gone but never forgotten.
cheer's, Maka

RIP David Bowie.
A true gentleman and Mega Rock Star. Space Oddity is my Bowie favourite song.

Never really got into Bowie
But you certainly knew his songs when you heard them A true music legend he was Freddy and him would be singing a duet right about now I reckon

Was gutted to hear about Lemmy.
Motorhead playing non stop at home. Lemmy was still delivering great albums right to the end. And then Bowie leaves us too? Almost unbelievable. A few Bowie albums found their way to the pile. I think Low is a great album and shows just how talented he really was. |
